Customer Question

While in bankruptcy a default judgement was entered. How do I get this resolved?I filed for bankruptcy on 4/18 received a case number. I added a creditor on 5/9 and they filed for a judgement on 5/24 according to the documents. I was never served in person, one day decided to go ny the apartment and found in rolled up on the door. I told my lawyer and he said we would talk the apartments lawyer. So I thought nothing else of it. They ended up getting a judgement on 6/17. My bankruptcy case was discharged on 7/10 and closed on 8/23. Months I had a collections company call me about this once I gave them my bankruptcy case number ***** reported a zero balance and noted in was under chapter 7 on my credit. Now that I want to try and get a home loan I need to get this resolved.Were they even supposed to be able to file this judgement?How would I go about fixing this?

to clarify, you would bring the motion in the state court case where they got the judgment. You may have to pay appearance and reopen costs though, so contact a local attorney to assist you as needed. Thanks and good luck

To resolved this quickly am I able to reach the lawyer on the plaintiff’s side and ask them to tell the court that this was satisfied? Just so I can move forward. Is that something they can or will do?
